Donations?

Thursday, January 7th, 2010
So, starting our next project, we need money.  While we are trying different approaches as well, I figured I would give this a shot.  I can’t offer you much in return.  Just bragging rights if we are ever famous millionaires and our complete and utter appreciation.  We all love making films and unfortunately, sometimes our vision simply isn’t possible on a nothing budget.  So, here’s the donate link:


Caine, last night came up with a great idea.  We are selling cards for $5 dollars each that basically say that if you support us now, we’ll pay you $1000 if we ever make it big.  Not a bad deal if you ask me.  Will we regret that later?  Probably, but what the hell, right?  We are also looking in to hosting a sushi night where the actors all make rolls and sell them.  Another idea was to host a screening of Do Nice Guys Finish Last and ask for donations there as well.  Then there’s my specialty of just plainly selling things.  Really what ever I can get my hands on gets a price tag.  I’m also selling bread.  Wipe that grin off your face.  I realized last night that selling bread is pretty damn easy.  Especially because I have a bread maker.  It takes me about 20 minutes and the damn bread maker does all the rest.  I just add the ingredients and hit a button.  I’ll keep you guys updated with how everything is going.  The showing of Do Nice Guys Finish Last is my favorite option so far.  Renting the theater would take most of our profits, but that would be one hell of a night.
